My research aims to answer how host and displaced communities in Brazil and Colombia interact aroundSexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR).I would specifically examine populations who are disproportionately affected by indicators ofreproductive health, such as displaced and/or indigenous women.The key aim of my project would be to determine the most pressing issues that prevent women fromrealising their SRHR. Research would aim to highlight barriers identified by local women and CommunityHealth Workers (CHW) that prevent CHWs positive engaging with marginalised populations. This wouldlead to suggesting improvements to health programmes and training involving CHWs, enabling them tobecome more transformative agents of change. The research would contribute to knowledge to informhealth practitioners and policymakers how to fulfil SRHR and improve reproductive health in marginalgroups.I intend to examine the extent to which CHWs in host and receiving communities currently manage thesedifferences; identify key wants and needs in marginalised populations and create a framework that wouldenable CHWs to maximise their capabilities as agents of change. Therefore, sub-questions I will beinvestigating include:a) How are state actors in Brazil and Colombia fulfilling their obligations to secure sexual andreproductive health rights?b) What are the barriers women face in accessing existing services?c) How can CHWs better fulfil the SRHR of marginalised women?d) How can these services be improved to include marginalised groups?

我的研究旨在回答巴西和哥伦比亚的收容社区和流离失所社区如何围绕性和生殖健康权利（SRHR）进行互动。我将特别研究受生殖健康指标影响不成比例的人群，如流离失所和/或土著妇女。我的项目的主要目标是确定阻止妇女实现其SRHR的最紧迫问题。研究的目的是强调当地妇女和社区卫生工作者（CHW）发现的阻碍CHW积极参与边缘化人群的障碍。这将导致建议改善卫生计划和涉及CHW的培训，使他们成为更具变革性的变革推动者。这项研究将有助于知识，非正式的卫生从业人员和决策者如何实现性健康和生殖健康及权利，并改善生殖健康在marginalgroups.I打算检查在何种程度上在东道国和接收社区的社区卫生工作者目前管理thesediverances;确定关键的愿望和需要在边缘化的人群，并创建一个框架，woudenable社区卫生工作者，以最大限度地提高他们的能力，作为变革的代理人。因此，我将调查的子问题包括：a）巴西和哥伦比亚的国家行为者如何履行他们的义务，以确保性和生殖健康权利？B）妇女在获得现有服务方面面临哪些障碍？（c）社区卫生工作者如何更好地实现边缘化妇女的性健康和生殖健康及权利？（d）如何改进这些服务，以包括边缘化群体？
